Friday 22nd May 2015 – Andrew Langendam on Meteorites, Stefan Dieters on MBO!

8pm this Friday, MBO is in stereo again as we are fortunate in having two (YES, TWO) guest speakers.
 
First will be Andrew Langendam, telling us everything we need to know, and a lot more besides, about meteorites.

The second speaker is Stefan Dieters, from Tasmania, who was an Honours student in the early days of MBO, who will regale us with tales about . . . . . . . . . . (guess what). :-)
